avocado

Avocado is one of those foods that took some coming around to. I’ve read that it takes three tries to transform your tastebuds into liking a new food, a theory I am going to be testing out. I am not sure how many tries it took me to enjoy avocado, but I am glad I did. This creamy, green fruit is a nutritional powerhouse and is a versatile ingredient in the kitchen. It makes a great addition to smoothies, packing it with multiple vitamins and healthy fats while adding a creamy texture. My favourite coffee shop makes a Chai Latte Smoothie that I absolutely love. But my wallet doesn’t like forking out the cash for it on a daily basis so I decided to improvise. While the coffee shop version doesn’t use avocado, my version does, and I can’t even tell the difference. It’s a perfect blend of Chai spices, creamy avocado, cashew cream, garden greens, probiotic yogurt and mango.

This creamy chai latte smoothie is so good you will feel like you are indulging in a calorie-laden dessert
